How to Make It:

  1. To make the lily, cut away the upper part of a plastic-foam cup so the base is an inch high. Cut out triangles from around the edge of the base.

  2. To make the lily pad, cut out a heart shape from a plastic-foam plate or tray. Color it with a green permanent marker.

  3. Use a metal fastener to connect the lily to the lily pad. Glue a yellow pompom on the head of the fastener.

  4. Make as many water lilies as you wish. Float them in a bowl, pan, or tray of water.
